When the time of David's death drew near,
he gave these instructions to his son Solomon:
"I am going the way of all flesh.
Take courage and be a man.
Keep the mandate of the LORD, your God,
following his ways and observing his statutes,
commands, ordinances, and decrees as they are written
in the law of Moses, that you may succeed
in whatever you do, wherever you turn,
and the LORD may fulfill the promise he made on my behalf
when he said, 'If your sons so conduct themselves
that they remain faithful to me with their whole heart
and with their whole soul, you shall always have
someone of your line on the throne of Israel.'
David rested with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David.
The length of David's reign over Israel was forty years:
he reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
When Solomon was seated on the throne of his father David,
with his sovereignty firmly established,

“Blessed may you be, O LORD,
God of Israel our father,
from eternity to eternity.”

“Yours, O LORD, are grandeur and power,
majesty, splendor, and glory.

“LORD, you are exalted over all.
Yours, O LORD, is the sovereignty;
you are exalted as head over all.
Riches and honor are from you.”

"You have dominion over all,
In your hand are power and might;
it is yours to give grandeur and strength to all.”

Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out-
two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits.
He instructed them to take nothing for the journey
but a walking stick--no food, no sack, no money in their belts.
They were, however, to wear sandals but not a second tunic.
He said to them, "Wherever you enter a house,
stay there until you leave from there.
Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you,
leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them."
So they went off and preached repentance.
They drove out many demons,
and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them.
